momma-devore9702 Posted November 6, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I have read that you can rent wave runners right on the beach. I'm trying to get an idea of how long you have to ride and the approx cost. Also are they all self guided? We really want to be able to do our own thing. Also are you able to get on them easily because one of us has 2 bum knees! Thanks in advance for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookbabe Posted November 7, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Red Sail’s prices are pretty consistent with other operators. https://www.redsailcayman.com/waverunner-rentals#category/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted November 8, 2018 #3 Share Posted November 8, 2018 There are rentals at the Calico Jacks area.....prices are about the same...give or take a few bucks. Yes, they are all self-guided. Do your own thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camijo Posted November 9, 2018 #4 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Rented one while we were at Calico Jack's, self guided. $50 for 30 minutes, my husband drove and I rode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravellingBritNY Posted November 20, 2018 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2018 There are jet ski tours available, for those that want them, but the rentals on Seven Mile Beach are self-guided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This price is considerably less than the RedSail prices of $85. I am travelling with my kids and will need to rent two, so I am eager to know how recently you rented them, and from what concession.

Since we were at Calico Jack's, on both sides of their facility jet ski rentals were set up. We put our name on the list for a time slot. They provided life jackets and off we went for 30 minutes. We did sign a waiver. I could see these vendors from my lounge chair, so they are not far at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravellingBritNY Posted December 5, 2018 #9 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Please be aware that once in a while you get unlicensed vendors renting Jetskis. News stories are out there like this one: https://www.caymancompass.com/2016/11/01/public-beach-vendors-fined-500-vow-court-fight/ How does this affect you? Chances are they carry no insurance at all - no liability, etc. If the craft doesn't work, or harms you, they won't be covering it. So just a word of warning before you automatically go with the cheapest. Once in a while the government will crack down on them, but sometimes they show up again.
